Shauna Coxsey has just returned from a fruitful trip to La Pedriza, Spain, where she climbed two 8B boulders and an 8B+ in the space of just four climbing days.
Really impressive stuff. I know male ascents at this grade are less newsworthy now but it would be good if the article mentioned whether Ned did them too and how he found them, almost like a team trip report. You've done this on some previous articles and as we've invested in the family vibe of these trips (which I love), it would be nice to see how the whole 'team' did. I don't think this would take anything away from Shauna's achievements.
Ned did pretty well on this trip, doing most of the problems listed above as well as Zarzafar which is an excellent looking 8B+ over at Zarzalejo. As always, some suited Shauna better, some were easier for Ned but they are both pretty flippin' good so got business done.
Cheers Matt, hope you're well. All your climbers seem to be doing well at the moment. Or maybe they always were and you're just doing a good job of making sure we hear about it!
